Apple Store

Apple's fourth retail store in Manhattan is evidence of the company's growth: as the brand gets bigger and better, so do its shops. This one is reminiscent of the iconic cube on Fifth Avenue, with a glass edifice and curved glass ceiling that beam light down the block, beckoning Mac fanatics and newcomers alike. Although it's the lowest building on the Upper West Side, it boasts the largest floor of Apple products in the world. The ground level is minimal, with 16 tables and a number of laptops, but down the glass staircase guests will find all the Apple products they know and love, plus a 45-foot Genius Bar to help them get the hang of their latest gadgets.
